Andy Warhol Commissioned to Re-Imagine Ingrid Bergman

In 1983 Andy Warhol was contacted by Galerie Borjeson to so a suite of images of Ingrid Bergman. In the mid-eighties most of Warhol’s work was commissions, and at that point, in his career, he had made a name for himself re-imaging the most iconic celebrities. He did three screen prints of Ingrid.

313 is based on a publicity photograph. Side by side you can see how his minor alteration made a big difference in the mood of the image.

314 Is based on a still from the 1945 film “Bells Of Saint Mary” Once again you can see Warhol adapted the shot to match his vision.
